Somewhat ironically, Generation X took up plaid as one of its fashion statements in the slacker era.

Gen-X are now in the post-slacker era, BTW.

However the plaid/slacker fashion statement was killed when the Woodstock Baby Boomers commericalized it, When Grunge clothing became available at JcPennys that pretty much was the end of that fad.

In my past life as an attorney, I had the pleasure of talking with Bart Starr on a few occasions. He had been a token "celebrity director" in a company that was named in a securities class action. Although I am too young to have seen him play, I was familiar with his exploits. A nicer man you could never meet. We chatted several times about anything and everything . . . politics, whether Elway was better than Marino, Vince Lombardi. What a truly quality human being. I was almost -- ALMOST -- sad to see the case end. He was the only "client" who ever treated me (an irrelevant junior associate) like a human being . . . which is especially remarkable since he was the only one who could've pulled an ego trip and gotten away with it.
